there's nothing you can do but be there for them, maybe spend some time with them, and just listen...they have to deal with it themselves, and as heartless as this may seem, the sun will rise again tomorrow and they will go on with their lives , eventually...i had a couple of friends that lost one of their parents at that age...speaking from a Christian viewpoint ( and i've talked about this with my sister ), our sadness for the ones we've lost is selfish, we're not sad for them but for ourselves because we won't enjoy their company anymore, the people who have died have gone to a better place...but we'll be reunited once again...soon, because, when you look at the big picture, life is but a second, it passes by so quickly...
